The mortgage is upon it yet; ‘Twill stay there, too, I fear, I remember, I remember, The countless plans I made, And all the calculations So proudly I essayod. I remember, I remember, That most eventlul day Tho house was done. I bad not dreamed That it would look that way. I remember, I remember, Each rain, howe'er remoto; For on those sad occasions My cellar was afloat. I remember, I romembor, My famous architect ; I paid him thrice as much as ho Had led me to expect. Remomber! I should say so! How can I e’er forget That house! Though not the owner, I'm living in it yet. Tom Masson, FOR RASTER SUNDAY.
